Super Lawyers magazine announced that Attorney Neil Burns was elected a "Massachusetts Super Lawyer" - a title awarded to less than 5% of the attorneys in the Commonwealth.

The Super Lawyers selection process involves three basic steps: creation of the candidate pool; evaluation of candidates by the research department; and peer evaluation by practice area. According to the findings, "Super Lawyers is a listing of outstanding lawyers from more than 70 practice areas who have attained a high degree of peer recognition and professional achievement." The award is made by Law and Politics, a division of Key Professional Media, Inc., of Minneapolis, Minnesota. They make awards across the country and reach more than 13 million readers.
